Two volunteers will be staying in a apartment in the city centre of The Hague. In this appartment they have the opportunity to cook for themselves. The volunteers receive adequate funds on top of their pocket money to help them buy and prepare their own food. In traditional fashion, participants will be expected to cycle to and from diverse work places, although The Hague also has a strong tram-system as an alternative.

Upon arrival the participants receive a string of trainings to help them settle within the Netherlands and the YMCA. This will include an introduction to Dutch culture and habits, Dutch food, public transport, the YMCA and the basics of youth work. On their work places, they'll receive further trainings. Volunteers can also participate in other trainings offered by YMCA The Hague and YMCA The Netherlands, with topics ranging from working with children, to project management and communication. Please note that having control of the Dutch language opens up a lot of new trainings to attend.
